Chapter 1177: The Daxing Envoy Arrives
,
Gu Chengyu turned around and was about to exit the dormitory, when suddenly a voice came from behind him, "Jinyu! No matter what happens in the future, please be sure to protect Brother Ye'er's life, can you respond to me? ”
The emperor looked at Gu Chengyu's emaciated back and asked nervously.
Gu Chengyu nodded, "The minister should be down!" ”
"Okay, I'm satisfied!" The emperor showed a relieved smile on his face, as long as Gu Chengyu responded, he knew that Gu Chengyu would definitely do it.
"Even if you take your place, I won't blame you! As long as you protect Brother Ye'er's life and leave me incense, I will be able to look at the nine springs in the future. ”
The emperor said softly, and then he took a quick breath, and suddenly shouted: "Come on, grind ink for me!" ”
"Your Majesty, just now Master Gu told me that you want to recuperate, can you stay!" A chamberlain quickly stepped into the inner hall, he had just been transferred from the Empress Dowager's palace to serve.
"Grinding ink, I want to make a holy decree!" The emperor ordered him to help him up, panting to get up. He was afraid that he would not be able to sleep at any time, so of course he had to prepare in advance.
......
"Are these people recruited?" Gu Chengyu stood in the cell of Dali Temple, looked at the few people who were locked up in the prison, and asked Peng Fang, the left temple beside him.
"My lord! All of them were recruited, but the confessions of two of them did not match. Imperial Chef Zhang said that he was originally on duty today, but Imperial Chef Wang was going to celebrate his mother's birthday tomorrow, so the two changed the day of duty. However, it was only a private transfer, and did not ask for instructions from the peak. But Wang Yuchu said that he was on duty today, and Zhang Yuchu lied. ”
Peng Fang handed a stack of confessions in his hand to Gu Chengyu, and Gu Chengyu took it and looked at it.
"What do other people say? This is the peak that looks for them, there should be a deacon record! "It shouldn't be difficult to find out who of these two people lied.
"The others said the same thing as Wang Yuchu, the villain had already looked for their Shangfeng just now, but Shangfeng said that Wang Yuchu was lying. He also showed the villain his deacon record, which was consistent with what he said, and the top originally remembered that it was Zhang Yuchu! ”
"According to what you say, those who are on duty in the imperial dining room think that today is the royal kitchen on duty. But their superiors said that Zhang Yuchu was on duty, is that so? Gu Chengyu pondered for a moment, no matter which of these two lied, anyway, the matter had nothing to do with them.
"Exactly!" Peng Fang nodded.
"Have you searched their dwellings? Are there any abnormalities in the other chamberlains and maids? Gu Chengyu was wondering who was lying.
"I searched, but I didn't find the rhizome of the dove flower!" Ke Jun, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, strode into the cell of Dali Temple, because he captured the person, so he can come and go freely in this cell today.
"Master Ke!" Gu Chengyu saluted, the commander of the Praetorian Guard was a second-grade soldier, but he was two levels higher than him.
"Gu Siqing!" Ke Jun nodded, "Everyone is already here, and Gu Siqing will take over the arraignment next." After that, if there was anything that needed help, Gu Siqing just spoke. ”
"Then the lower officials will thank Master Ke." Gu Chengyu looked at Ke Jun's back, this person was quite polite to him.
Nowadays, there are many people in the court who are not used to him, and of course, there are many people who want to talk to him and wait and see what happens. This person is friendly to him, but not too stammering, and gives a good impression.
"You interrogate those imperial chefs on duty today again, and interrogate them carefully!" Gu Chengyu felt that it was impossible for the top of this imperial dining room to lie, if this person really had a problem, then he would naturally have to confess with these imperial chefs, but it didn't seem to be the case at present.
Naturally, it doesn't mean that a few other people will have problems, there must be something else in this.
"Yes!" Peng let go, he looked at Gu Chengyu, and then turned around and walked towards those people.
Gu Chengyu's promotion was too fast, and he was stabbed to death, and his backer fell. If it weren't for his low grade and quick withdrawal, I was afraid that he would be greatly implicated.
It seems that he will have to behave well in front of this person in the future, otherwise he will really have no hope of promotion.
"Since those chamberlains and palace maids have not found the rhizomes of the dove flowers, then these imperial chefs are very suspicious, and you can go to their residences and search carefully." Gu Chengyu said to several other officials of Dali Temple, and then went directly out of the cell of Dali Temple.
Walking to the old place where he had come every day, he saw the familiar little figure sitting under the porch in a daze.
"Why are you late today?" Hearing the footsteps, the eldest prince's hand holding his cheek was quickly put down and sat up.
"See Your Highness! Something has been delayed today. Gu Chengyu sat beside him and looked at the sky, the weather had been a little warmer than some time before. In two days, it will be the second day of February, and spring is coming!
"Father is sick, isn't he?" The soft voice sounded next to itself, and the lonely and immature voice made Gu Chengyu's heart soften.
"Yes!"
"What my grandmother said, the palace knows."
Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, he didn't expect the Queen Mother to tell the eldest prince about this.
"Lord Gu, Father seems to have been sick lately, when will he get better?" Zhao Guangye tilted his head and looked at the person beside him. Although he could only see a little bright color flickering in front of him, he still looked at it persistently.
Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Zhao Guangye to suddenly reveal his identity, after all, the two of them never mentioned this matter during this time, they just talked about it normally.
"Your Highness, are your eyes better today?" Gu Chengyu was reluctant to answer, although Zhao Guangye was young, he should not deceive the other party.
"It's much better, you are really Master Gu!" Zhao Guangye pursed his lips, he had already guessed.
"Today, the official has something important to do, so he can only retire first, His Royal Highness should go back to the palace first! The spring cold is steep, and the wind here is strong, and it is easy to be infected with wind chill! ”
Gu Chengyu stood up, saluted, and walked out. Zhao Guangye didn't stop him, but listened to the footsteps and gradually walked away.
After walking far away, Gu Chengyu glanced back at Zhao Guangye, from the moment he saw this child, maybe they were tied together.
"My lord! I found out that it was Zhang Yuchu who was lying, and we had already found the rhizome powder of the dove flower in his home. As soon as he entered the cell of Dali Temple, Peng Fang greeted him.
"But who instructed it?" Gu Chengyu came to his senses and immediately asked.
"No, it's still holding on! My lord, may be tortured? Peng Fang asked cautiously.
"Yes! Find out who is behind the scenes as soon as possible, always be careful, don't let him die! Gu Chengyu glanced at Peng Fang, this person is a little capable, and he is acting like this in front of him at this moment, I am afraid that he wants to hug his thighs.
No matter who this person was before, he was sure that he was not King Jing's person. In that case, let's use it first!
......
On March 15 of the second year of Guanghui, Geyuan, the seventh prince of Daxing, led his envoys to arrive in the capital of Dayan.
